OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Blades do not become dull from cutting hair, they are dulled by abrasive particles on the hair, such as dirt,
sand e.t.c
• Blades will not cut if abrasive particles are picked up and carried by the oil film between the blades. These
particles tend to hold the blades apart and cause chewing and pulling instead of clean cutting.
• The cutting blades furnished with Wahl Animal clippers are made of special high carbon steel scientifically
heat-treated for correct hardness. Years of experience have created a special process for grinding these blades
to a superior sharpness. Oil blades before and during use.
• Oiling the blades performs two distinct functions.
1. Provides a low friction, very thin film lubricant between the cutting blades so that they can take a full cutting
stroke without becoming hot from friction.
2. Flushes abrasive particles and hair out from between the blades.
NOTE: If you cut into dirt, immediately wash the blade with oil to flush it out. Periodically dip the teeth in a
shallow pan of Wahl Clipper Oil (with clipper running) to flush out dirt and hair.
FOR RECHAREABLE AND CORD/CORDLESS CLIPPERS
1. Before use, the clipper must be fully charged for 16 hours.
2. Once fully charged, the unit may be used without cord.
3. After use move the switch to the O – OFF (CHARGE) position. Reconnect the appliance to the transformer cord
and recharge batteries by connecting the wall plug transformer into any convenient electrical outlet.
FOR DIRECT PLUG-IN OPERATION
1. Should you need to use the appliance in corded mode when the battery is fully discharged, it is best to charge
the appliance in O – OFF position for several minutes before use. During use, you may notice a change in
blade speed. This is perfectly normal. The clipper will still perform adequately in corded mode with a fully
discharged batteries.
2. Connect the appliance to the transformer cord, and plug the wall transformer into an electrical outlet.
3. Move the switch to 1 – ON position.
4. After use, turn to O – OFF position then disconnect wall transformer from outlet.
